Banana Peanut Butter Oat Muffins Recipe
Description
The Banana Peanut Butter Oat Muffins Recipe uses ripe bananas, peanut butter, and rolled oats blended together with eggs, Greek yogurt, sugar, vanilla, and leavening agents. The blended batter maintains some oat texture, contributing to a hearty crumb. Baking at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 16-17 minutes results in muffins that are moist and slightly dense owing to the oats and banana moisture.
The flavors balance the natural sweetness of bananas and sugar with the nutty richness of peanut butter and the tang from Greek yogurt. Vanilla extract adds aromatic depth. The muffins are ideal for breakfast or a filling snack and have a wholesome character from the oats and fruit.
After baking, muffins should cool in the pan and then on a wire rack to set the structure and prevent sogginess. The use of fat-free Greek yogurt and controlled sugar mean these can be suitable for those monitoring fat intake while still enjoying a satisfying baked treat.
Ingredients
- 2 banana ripe
- 2 egg large
- 2 cups rolled oats
- ¾ cup plain fat free Greek yogurt
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup peanut butter
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- ¼ tsp. salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray or line with muffin liners.
- Add all of the ingredients to a blender or food processor. Blend, or process, for about 1 minute, scraping down the sides of the processor as necessary. Batter will be somewhat smooth (some of the oats will break down and some will still be in small flakes).
- Pour the batter into the muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full.
- Bake for 16-17 minutes.
- Let the muffins cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes. Transfer muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
